Re: Server Recomendations

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

and simply because it is one of my most basic pet peeves.

MANY people come into the forum and ask a question, only to get upset when one of us asks a, or a series, of questions of them. Personally, my boredom factor kicks in really quick. I'm not a fast typist and if I take the effort to type out a question you better answer it, or I'm just going to turn away.

I DO NOT HAVE TIME to ask you twice.
Though you may not understand the reason for my question, I have reason.
You may not understand my process and may feel I am asking something not particularly related to your question. Lose the preconceptions, I am asking for good reason. I may be off-base, chasing the tail up the wazoo, however my main aim is to help you. If you want that assistance you may have to suffer my foibles.

I appologize, for getting frustrated. But I have spent too much time
listening to "experts" try and sell me a server that I don't nned. I
approached this inquiry, to get some possible avenues to research for myself.


You're mistaken again and showing your inexperience. The people in this
group are mostly Experts, you've been listening to SALES PEOPLE at Dell,
HP, etc...

Unlike the people you call experts, none of US have any interest in
selling you anything - this is not a sales Usenet group, this is an
advice forum where people see/offer very technical help.

You have been very good at avoiding the technical and missing that WE
are the experts and we are NOT trying to sell you anything.

If you think you're frustrated, imagine how us real Experts must feel
when we're trying to help YOU determine what you actually need and you
keep arguing with us that you don't want to tell us what you need or
that you don't want us to spec a system for your needs - which we have
no vested interest in.

What you keep missing is that we're unable to help you because you won't
help yourself - if you can't clearly state your capacity need then you
won't be able to understand what hardware you actually need to meet the
requirement.

You've given a hint, saying that a ML350 G% is overkill, but how do you
know that and why have you not told us what the requirement is?

I have many ML350 series, even a Quad CPU Quad Core system, but I also
have the lowest end Dell server that they put SBS 2008 on, each has a
very specific limit and it pays to get the right system the first time.

If you can't detail your exact capacity, users, workstations, volume of
email, amount of file space, etc... then there is no way to HELP YOU.
